| They look NOTHING like yorkies to me..I think that breeder is trying to get rid of some mutts he has around..lol.They look more like a maltese mix,but theres not a yorkie in there.I would even go further and say there is a few breeds in there..just like a regular mutt. |

| Birth Defect... I believe there was a thread on the red Yorkie's not too long ago?? If I remember correctly I believe the red is a birth defect. Don't quote me on this though, I am only going by memory...

| red yorkies are a cross breed mutt. designer dogs are mutts. if you want a mutt please go buy one from the pound. they will love you forever for it. a spade is a spade no matter what you call it. yes i own a pure breed mutt. just as sweet as my yorkie and bernese. hope no one falls for that. |

| That is not a yorkie. While researching breeders he was one of the first I pegged as a puppymill. Anyone selling that many breeds of dogs has got to be a puppy mill. Unfortunately many people will fall for the rare breed hype and pay for dog they can get at the pound. sue |

| yup, they are muts, they are cute doggies, but I can't believe they are trying to sell them for $3500. I bet they don't even know, what time of dog is it. I hope no one buys from them, is the demand from suppose rare puppies that keeps people like this going.. |

| i agree before i read any of the posts i checked out the pic and the first thing that popped into my head was, that's not a yorkie atleast not 100% yorkie. why do people try to take advantage of others like this? i've learned so much from this website i think i have to tell someone every day that there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie or a rare yorkie and a good breeder won't jack the price up because the are small. just so i don't offend anyone i know so breeders price them a little higher (due to vet bills, extra care etc) i mean the breeders that sale them for way too much simply b/c they're tiny. |

| I just had to go look at the poodles on this guy's site because I used to have a beautiful red poodle. I have to admit I wasn't aware of the red poodles until I got mine - always thought they were black, white or apricot - but this guy has "sable" and "brindle"! Is there even such a thing?? Anyone know anything about poodles?
